How to make HTML Text unselectable [duplicate]
I would like to add text to my webpage as a label and make it unselectable.
In other words, When the mouse cursor is over the text I would like it to not turn into a text selecting cursor at all.
A good example of what I'm trying to achieve is the buttons on this website (Questions,Tags,Users,...)
You can't do this with plain vanilla HTML, so JSF can't do much for you here as well.
If you're targeting decent browsers only, then just make use of CSS3:
.unselectable {
-webkit-touch-callout: none;
-webkit-user-select: none;
-khtml-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-ms-user-select: none;
user-select: none;
}
<label class="unselectable">Unselectable label</label>
If you'd like to cover older browsers as well, then consider this JavaScript fallback:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>SO question 2310734</title>
<script>
window.onload = function() {
var labels = document.getElementsByTagName('label');
for (var i = 0; i < labels.length; i++) {
disableSelection(labels[i]);
}
};
function disableSelection(element) {
if (typeof element.onselectstart != 'undefined') {
element.onselectstart = function() { return false; };
} else if (typeof element.style.MozUserSelect != 'undefined') {
element.style.MozUserSelect = 'none';
} else {
element.onmousedown = function() { return false; };
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<label>Try to select this</label>
</body>
</html>
If you're already using jQuery, then here's another example which adds a new function disableSelection() to jQuery so that you can use it anywhere in your jQuery code:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>SO question 2310734 with jQuery</title>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>
<script>
$.fn.extend({
disableSelection: function() {
this.each(function() {
if (typeof this.onselectstart != 'undefined') {
this.onselectstart = function() { return false; };
} else if (typeof this.style.MozUserSelect != 'undefined') {
this.style.MozUserSelect = 'none';
} else {
this.onmousedown = function() { return false; };
}
});
}
});
$(document).ready(function() {
$('label').disableSelection();
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<label>Try to select this</label>
</body>
</html>
No one here posted an answer with all of the correct CSS variations, so here it is:
.not-selectable {
-webkit-touch-callout: none;
-webkit-user-select: none;
-khtml-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-ms-user-select: none;
user-select: none;
}<p class="not-selectable">Not-selectable text</p>The full modern solution to your problem is purely CSS-based, but note that older browsers won't support it, in which cases you'd need to fallback to solutions such as the others have provided.
So in pure CSS:
-webkit-user-select: none;
-khtml-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-ms-user-select: none;
-o-user-select: none;
user-select: none;
However the mouse cursor will still change to a caret when over the element's text, so you add to that:
cursor: default;
Modern CSS is pretty elegant.
I altered the jQuery plugin posted above so it would work on live elements.
(function ($) {
$.fn.disableSelection = function () {
return this.each(function () {
if (typeof this.onselectstart != 'undefined') {
this.onselectstart = function() { return false; };
} else if (typeof this.style.MozUserSelect != 'undefined') {
this.style.MozUserSelect = 'none';
} else {
this.onmousedown = function() { return false; };
}
});
};
})(jQuery);
Then you could so something like:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('label').disableSelection();
// Or to make everything unselectable
$('*').disableSelection();
});
加载中,请稍侯......
